The school authorities have convened a meeting of the management committee on Monday to decide the fate of the student.

“Though no formal complaint has been lodged by the teacher, we have taken the matter seriously. Many of our teachers are in favour of expulsion of the student. The final decision will be taken at the meeting of the school management committee,” said Abdul Kalam Mandal, head master of Hari Prasad High School.

Teachers of the school said the incident took place on Wednesday, when Swadesh Saha was teaching in the class. He noticed Kajal fiddling with his cellphone, which he was holding under the table to avoid the teacher’s attention.
